工作倦怠生活麻木 白领"橡皮人"一代

2010-09-17来源:和谐英语

  Almost as soon as he wakes up at 8am each day, property agent Kevin Tu is already tired. He drags himself to work, and puts in nine hours in front of the computer and with clients. Then he goes home to his one-bedroom apartment in the south side of Beijing to stare at TV shows alone.

  房地产经纪人凯文-徐(音)每天早晨8点钟差不多一睁眼就觉得已经疲惫不堪。拖着疲乏的身子来到公司,然后坐在电脑前一呆就是9个小时。下班后回到位于北京南部的一居室小公寓,一个人盯着电视看。

  A go-getting executive in a multi-national company just a few years ago, Tu, 31, now lives just "one day at a time", as he puts it. That might be the motto for a growing group of fatigued young, white-collar Chinese known as "eraser" or "plasticine" men (xiang pi ren).

  31岁的徐几年前是一家跨国公司的管理人员,是个雄心勃勃的人,而今用他自己的话来说,日子是“过一天算一天”。这也许就是中国日益壮大的疲惫的年轻白领的座右铭,这个群体就是众所周知的“橡皮人”群体。
